We are landowners and producers who represent and operate inside this
proposed boundary
We all have irrigation wells ranging in capacity from 200 gpm to 1200 gpm
Inside this proposed LEMA is our community. We are all competitors but also
neighbors
Everyone on the committee has a succession plan for the next generation. We all
have sons and daughters, grandsons and granddaughters
We would like that succession plan to have irrigation sustainability for all inside
the proposed LEMA for future generations
